Well that is not what you originally said and what I commented on. You advocated for confiscation and destruction of a legal product to own in the UK.

Fine the driver, jail the driver, do whatever the law requires when someone breaks a traffic law. Just owning that particular vehicle apparently is not a crime in the UK. Destroying the vehicle as a punitive measure is simply not appropriate. Would you confiscate and destroy the shoes of someone trespassing on a path?

From the article:

“Just because UK residents are allowed to purchase an imported Cybertruck doesn’t mean they can drive it on public roads. Choosing to take the risk opens them up to a police stop.”
